I want to video fireworks shows from above and mid distances.

It all depends on how much you want to spend, lol

The Dji Mini 2 would probably struggle the most in low lighting situations like videoing fireworks as it has the smallest camera senor of the three I'm going to list. The smaller the sensor, the more noise you will have in your images. https://amzn.to/3dUuyRw

The Mavic Air 2 is a lot of bang for the buck  https://amzn.to/3pZJsIr

For most applications I would say that the Mavic 2 Pro isn't worth the extra $$$ over the Air 2, it does have a larger sensor that would definitely be a benefit in low lighting. The Air 2 has a 1/2" camera sensor and the 2 Pro has a 1" camera sensor.   https://amzn.to/3r1qzGr

Of course you can go up from there, but probably overkill.

Mavic air 2. Get the fly more package and the DJI care refresh then spend an afternoon in the biggest field you can find learning how to fly it. LOL

Thank you both, I’ll do some checking Into them

I picked up a Mavic 2 Pro and it blows me away what it will do. The larger camera sensor helps in low light conditions.

Agreed. My Phantom 4 Advanced with the 1/2" sensor is much better in low light than my Mavic Air 2. It just comes down to how much $$$ you want to throw at it.

I bought a couple cheap drones as starters, knowing full well they'd be destroyed.

One got fully fucked. One got taken away in the wind. It's somewhere in the pine trees out back I'm sure.

Spent $500 on a Holy Stone 720. Quite pleased with it's performance for such a good price.
